Yuny station (Russian: Ста́нция Ю́ный) is a railway station located in St. Petersburg, Russia.
It was constructed by the JSC Primorskaya Saint Peterburg–Sestroretsk railway and was opened as part of the Ozerki line on July 23, 1893, under the name Grafskiy Pavilion (in translation - Count pavilion).
In 1948, the narrow-gauge Small October railway was created here. In 1955, platforms were constructed and the station received the name Yuny.
Russian poet Maximilian Voloshin mentions the station Grafskiy Pavilion in his diary and reports that there was a summer residence here at which, in May 1926, Maxim Gorky and Anton Chekhov met one of their notability unidentified people.[3]
